Introduction

Hello, my name is Emilio Figueroa and im 12 years old in the 7th grade and im Puerto Rican. I was born in the Bronx and I speak both languages, English and Spanish. I'm an outgoing and funny perosn, plus I'm an awesome person to be around. I also play video games on my off time, mostly Call of Duty or Halo. Whenever I have time, I go outside to ride bikes or practice skateboarding. Other times I play sports like football or baseball.
I think women play an important part in society because they have inspired alot of people in the past and they still are inspiring people today. Hariett Tubman played an important part in society because she created the Underground Railroad. Rosa Parks is considered the " Mother of Civil Rights."
The woman I picked for my blog is Rachel Carson. I wonder when she was born? When did she die? Did she do any other jobs? These are some of the things i hope to find during my research.
